Heart In A Cage Lyrics - First Impressions Of Earth - Strokes

Well I don't feel better 

When I'm fucking around 

And I don't write better 

When I'm stuck in the ground 

So don't teach me a lesson 

'Cause I've already learned 

Yeah, the sun will be shining 

And my children will burn 

Oh the heart beats in its cage 

I don't want what you want 

I don't feel what you feel 

See I'm stuck in a city 

But I belong in a field 

Yeah, we got left, left, left, left, left, left, left 

Now it's three in the morning and you're eating alone 

Oh the heart beats in its cage 

All our friends they're laughing at us 

All of those you loved, you mistrust 

Help me, I'm just not quite myself 

Look around there's no one else left 

I went to the concert 

And I fought through the crowd 

Guess I got too excited 

When I thought you were around 

Oh, he gets left, left, left, left, left, left, left 

And I'm sorry you were thinking I would steal your fire 

Oh, the heart beats in its cage 

Yes the heart beats in its cage 

And the heart beats in its cage
